KJW1911 Poor Gas Efficiency---Like suck ass...efficiency....

As the post says.

I have a bone stock KJW 1911. This is nearly new. I have 3 mags. 2 are C02 one is Green gas.

Mags are NOT leaking

When the gun fires it spews out gas pretty good and the amount of shots I can get out of it is pathetic.


I am zeroing in on the issue I think. This is a YouTube video I found. Ya ya, its a bit on and on, put he seems to be hitting points:

Are there others who have a 1911 with similar problems.

If so, can you tell me what you do to fix it.

I pulled mine apart last night. Did the whole thing, cleaned it, etc etc.

There is no sign of obvious cracks etc anywhere. I did lube up the piston head with MadBull Silicone grease and it did seem a bit better.


Any input would be helpful.


Thanks,

Trev
